Title: Combined paper punch and binding apparatus.
Inventor: GROSWITH CHARLES T
IPC: B42B5/02
Filed: 1990-07-03
Abstract: A paper punch and binding apparatus has two punch mechanisms, one for punching round holes in a paper sheets stack and one for punching rectangular holes in another paper sheets stack. A single lever or crank simultaneously operates and drives a series of round end punches to shear the round holes and a punch plate with integral rectangular punch elements shear rectangular holes. A four-bar linkage connects the lever to the punch plate and the series of the punches in a manner that both the plate and punches are driven in a vertical straight line and with a greater mechanical advantage at the start and over the first increments of the punching operation. In a preferred embodiment, a binding station is provided in an apparatus base portion particularly for binding with a Douvry-type plastic resilient loops binding element. The binding station has an operating knob which operates a simple gear interconnect train for uncurling the resilient loops and allowing the punched hole stack to be inserted thereon. In an additional embodiment two rows of large and smaller diameter punches are provided in one round punch mechanism with an apertured translatable bar for rendering inoperative one or the other of these rows of punches.

Abstract: Le système de commande de distribution d'électricité de l'invention peut, au moyen d'une paire de transformateurs (T1, T2), alimenter plusieurs charges avec une tension réduite pendant un fonctionnement continu. Lorsque l'on applique une nouvelle charge au réseau de distribution, le transformateur (T1) est reconfiguré par un relais (A1) pour augmenter la tension sur le réseau de distribution et permettre l'allumage de lampes fluorescentes etc. Le système de commande comprend également des moyens de signalisation constitués d'une minuterie (17), d'un circuit de commande (18) de la minuterie et d'un autre relais (TM). La signalisation s'effectue en réduisant davantage la tension sur le réseau de distribution pour des périodes courtes prédéterminées. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la reconfiguration du transformateur (T2) s'effectue au moyen de quatre triacs (29, 30, 31, 32) (non illustrés) connectés dans un circuit en pont.

Abstract: The electromotively driven door lock comprises a latch (11), driveable manually by a pushbutton (23), and a bolt (35) which can be driven both by itself and together with the latch (11) from an electric motor (43) via a gear (45) and a control part (47) displaceable transversely to the direction of displacement of the bolt. In order, if necessary, also to have the possibility of moving the bolt (35) inwards manually together with the latch (11), the pushbutton (23) is coupled via a rack (87) to a pivotable take-up part (199) which takes up a tenon (103) of the control part (47) in the opening direction via a take-up finger (101). The radii of the toothings (85, 97) of the pushbutton (23) and of the take-up part (99) which mesh with the rack (87) are calculated so that a rotary-angle step-up is obtained. This allows a compact design of the door lock, suitable especially as a tubular-frame lock, without necessitating an increase in the power of the electric motor (43). <IMAGE>

Abstract: According to the present invention, by means of small variations to a single basic process it is possible to obtain a vaste range of diverse zeolites, which can be used as detergent bases, molecular sieves, ion exchangers, catalyst bases, etc. 
     This is achieved easily even starting from vaste materials such as steelworks slags, recycled acidic and basic by-products and wastes from other processes. Hence the process offers the twofold advantage of utilizing substances which would otherwise be difficult to dispose of, while providing a vaste range of diverse products at low cost.

Abstract: Procédé et appareil servant à accéder à une mémoire morte rémanente, effaçable électriquement et programmable (EEPROM) (30) après la fermeture hermétique d'un dispositif contenant l'EEPROM (30), tel qu'un dispositif médical implantable. L'accès à l'EEPROM (30) est assuré par connexion directe à une broche alimentatrice traversante (46) s'étendant à travers le boîtier hermétique du dispositif. Après le scellage hermétique, la mémoire reste accessible pour la programmation. Dans une application spécifique tel qu'un "pacemaker" électronique sensible, un capteur d'activité (42), monté à l'intérieur du boîtier hermétiquement scellé, est électroniquement connecté à l'EEPROM (30) et à d'autres parties de l'ensemble des circuits fonctionnels (22). Lors d'un test final, le signal de sortie du capteur d'activité (42) peut être contrôlé par rapport à des niveaux spécifiques de signaux de sortie associés à son activité, et être ajusté ou adapté en mémorisant des facteurs de gain appropriés dans l'EEPROM (30). Cet ajustement de la réaction du capteur d'activité (42) réduit au minimum le nombre de dispositifs médicaux produits qui ne peuvent pas répondre à des tolérances spécifiées et permet une réduction de ces tolérances pour assurer des variations relativement constantes du rythme de stimulation cardiaque en fonction de la force mécanique appliquée.
